All customers will receive a copy of the sales invoice upon payment of their items, which they are required to produce upon collection of their ceramics. This acts as a proof of purchase as well as allowing staff to identify which items belong to which customers.
Collections: As a general rule ceramics will be ready approximately 7 days from the date of painting and the collection date will be given on their sales invoice. If for any reason the date should change, we will notify customers by phone. This is usually only in exceptional circumstances, and we will make every effort to ensure that the customer has their item as soon as possible.
Casting collections: Castings are usually completed 4-6 weeks from being cast. The customer will be given a collection date on their sales invoice, if for any reason the date should change, we will contact the customer be phone. If a cast/mould should fail, we offer x1 recasting per failed item.
Ceramic Collections: We will hold finished items for a maximum of 6 weeks after this point any uncollected items will be disposed of. Once your collection becomes overdue, we will attempt to contact our customers on three separate occasions during this 6 week period.
Session times: All Painting, Printing, Imprint and Casting sessions as well as Parties are booked as two-hour slots unless otherwise stated at time of booking. If you think you will need longer, please make us aware of this at the time of booking and we will try to fit you in for a longer session if possible (this may not be possible during busier times such as school holidays and weekends) if you are unable to finish your ceramic painting during your booked 2 hour session and would like to book a session to finish your item you will be asked to pay another studio fee per person painting on your next session to cover the studio time.
Postage: If customers are unable to collect their items once they have been glazed and fired, we can post them at the customer's request. Postage is at an additional cost to cover postage and time taken etc.
Medium parcels are charged at £7.00 and Large at £12.00.
The postage of items is entirely at the customers risk and Dotty Pottery accepts no liability for any breakages once items are in the hands of the postal service.
Takeaway Kits: Takeaway caddies can be booked out on loan for an agreed period of time and this may vary on when it is needed back for other bookings. If a customer should return a caddy late this may incur a penalty if it adversely affects bookings by other customers.
Caring for your ceramics: Due to our ceramics being handmade and not factory processed we do not recommend putting them in dishwashers or microwaves as this may affect their longevity. Please also be aware that due to the hand made nature of the products they may not be entirely uniform.
There may be occasions where due to the firing process, defects and breakages may occur, whilst this is rare it is out of our control, if this should arise we will endeavour to rectify or replace the item.
Gift Vouchers: You may purchase gift vouchers through the shop on our website, payment is taken via PayPal. All vouchers are valid for one year from the date of purchase unless stated otherwise. Gift vouchers are non refundable.
Refunds: We have a no refund policy but are happy to exchange or offer gift vouchers to the value of your purchase, all deposits for group bookings of six or more are non refundable.
